ANEC II G-EBJO

by 1stEverPentax

Constructed by the Air Navigation and Engineering Company Ltd for a Light Aircraft Trials competition in 1924.

Raced in various events before being dismantled and stored in a hangar, subsequently sold and later was restored.

This is the only MkII ever built!

A very light aircraft...max weight is only 730lb, max speed about 85 mph from a 30hp engine.

Aircraft still flies in good weather from its base at Old Warden as part of the Shuttleworth Collection.
